fifty three | 365 III {explore} - a photo on Flickriver

I shot this photo at the Wild Animal Sanctuary in Keenesburg, Colorado. This adolescent bald eagle was not one of the saved animals at the sanctuary, but wild and just looking for some scraps…and possibly some mice. We were amazed when he came and landed right next to us. :)

TWAS has been rescuing exotic wildlife and endangered species since 1980, and is currently home to more than 290 Lions, Tigers, Bears, Jaguars, Leopards, Mountain Lions, Lynx, Bobcats, Servals, Wolves, and other wildlife. These animals were abandoned, abused, illegally kept, or came from other terrible situations. The vast majority of the animals were so-called “pets” - and were confiscated by law enforcement officials - usually within the first six months of their lives. The sanctuary also provides a permanent refuge to surplus animals from zoos and other wildlife facilities.
